Star formation in AEGIS field galaxies since z= 1.1: the dominance of gradually declining star formation, and the main sequence of star-forming galaxies
We analyze star formation (SF) as a function of stellar mass (M*) and redshift z in the All-

Breaking the hierarchy of galaxy formation
Recent observations of the distant Universe suggest that much of the stellar mass of bright
galaxies was already in place at z> 1. This presents a challenge for models of galaxy …
